ETERNAL ORDER OF PROGRESSION

This figure symbolizes the Eternal Order of Progression of a unit: as a nature unit, on the nature-side, within the sphere of earth, through the light world, the life world, the form world to the permanent physical world or Realm of Permanence; to the degree of breath-form;—then by way of the aia point or neutral line, as an aia unit, to the degree of a Triune Self unit, on the intelligent-side.

The oblique line of arrows leading to the point of balance downward indicates the line of progression of the unintelligent units to the Realm of Permanence; the line leading from the point of balance upward on the intelligent-side indicates the line of progression of intelligent units.

The symbol also shows the line of descent into the temporal human world of birth and death and re-existence, by the doers that failed in the trial test of bringing their feeling-and-desire into balanced union.

This chart indicates the stages in which the unit progresses in being conscious in successively higher degrees,—from being a primordial unit of the element of fire to becoming an ultimate unit as an Intelligence, trained through the perfect sexless bodies in the Realm of Permanence.

Ascent on the intelligent sideDescent on the nature sideThe unit descends from:the element andSphere of fire, to theSphere of air, to theSphere of water, to theSphere of earththrough the four worlds:Light world,Life world,Form world,Physical world,through the four planes:Light plane,Life plane,Form plane,Physical plane, and itsfour states of matter:Radiant state,Airy state,Fluid state, and theSolid state with its threeinvisible substates:Radiant-solid,Airy-solid,Fluid-solid, and the visibleSolid-solid substate,to the last degree of anature unit as the:breath-form unit; to the aiadegree. Then the unit ascends,first, as a Triune Self unit in the worlds, andultimately as an Intelligence in the spheres:As a knower,thinker,doer, of a Triune Selfin the worlds;As an Intelligence unitof the Order of the:Knowers,Thinkers,Desirers.aia point or line

The progression of a unit starts as a nature unit on the nature-side; passes through the neutral state of an aia unit, as the point or neutral line; is translated into an intelligent-unit, and ascends on the intelligent-side, first, as a Triune Self unit and then as an Intelligence unit.
